Steve Scully’s first(?) spot on a CSPAN call-in show, interviewing members of Congress after George H.W. Bush’s 1992 State of the Union speech. An interesting interview of the late Sen Ted Kennedy begins at the 20:00 mark. The topic? Health care, and Republican attacks on Medicare. (sigh)
Paul Orgel’s first day as a @cspanwj host (4/16/93). The topic: our trade deficit with… Japan!
Greta (Wodele) Brawner’s first appearance (11/8/06) on @cspanwj… as a guest!
First appearance by Pedro Echevarria on @cspanwj (2/9/02)
Peter Slen’s first* appearance on @cspanwj. In this segment, Peter relates the results of an important poll in the Bush v. Gore Presidential race, and reports about a vicious attack on a Secret Service agent. (* The CSPAN search indicates one earlier appearance from 1995, but the VCR seems to have eaten the tape part-way through. Tape sucks.)
A second non-answer to the trillions of unaccounted-for Pentagon $$$. Also not answered: who own the Washington Times?
@doobican calls in to question Rumsfeld’s statement of massive amounts of money lost by the Pentagon.

One weird call.
Rep. Anthony Weiner responds to the hissy fit over the President’s mean treatment of the Republicans in his recent speech.
